Jubilee2000 - Luke - 17

17:1  Then he said unto the disciples, It is impossible that offenses will not come, but woe unto the one through whom they come!

17:2  It would be better for him if a millstone turned by an ass were placed around his neck and he [were] cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.

17:3  Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother [should] trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

17:4  And if he trespasses against thee seven times in a day and seven times in a day turns again to thee, saying, I repent, thou shalt forgive him.

17:5  And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.

17:6  And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamore tree, Pluck thyself up by the root, and plant thyself in the sea, and it would obey you.

17:7  But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by when he is come from the field, Go and sit down at the table?

17:8  And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup and gird thyself and serve me until I have eaten and drunken, and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?

17:9  Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I think not.

17:10  So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.

17:11  And it came to pass as he went to Jerusalem that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

17:12  And as he entered into a certain village, ten men that were lepers met him, who stood afar off

17:13  and lifted up their voices and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.

17:14  When he saw [them], he said unto them, Go show yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass that as they went, they were cleansed.

17:15  Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back and with a loud voice glorified God

17:16  and fell down on [his] face at his feet, giving him thanks; and he was a Samaritan.

17:17  And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where [are] the nine?

17:18  Were there not found any returning to give glory to God, except this stranger?

17:19  And he said unto him, Arise, go; thy faith has saved thee.

17:20  And when he was asked of the Pharisees when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation;

17:21  neither shall they say, Behold it here! or, Behold it there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

17:22  And he said unto the disciples, The days will come when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see [it].

17:23  And they shall say to you, Behold it here, or, Behold it there; do not go, nor follow [them].

17:24  For as the lightning, which shines from the region under heaven, shines in that which is under heaven; so also shall the Son of man be in his day.

17:25  But first he must suffer many things and be rejected of this generation.

17:26  And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

17:27  They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

17:28  Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

17:29  but the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed [them] all.

17:30  Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

17:31  In that day, he who shall be upon the housetop and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away; and he that is in the field, let him likewise not turn back.

17:32  Remember Lot's wife.

17:33  Whosoever shall seek to save his soul shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose it shall cause it to live.

17:34  I tell you in that night there shall be two [men] in one bed: the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

17:35  Two [women] shall be grinding together: the one shall be taken, and the other left.

17:36  Two [men] shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

17:37  And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Where the body [is], there will the eagles be gathered together.:
